The election period and gun ban will run from 13 October to 13 December.
The campaign period will begin on 29 October and end on 26 November, two days before the special election.
A liquor ban will take effect on 27 November.
Candidates will have until 28 December to file their Statements of Contributions and Expenditures.
Comelec earlier allocated P10 million for the conduct of the special election, with the amount to be sourced from the poll body’s available savings.
